A Psalm of Asaph. The Mighty One, God the LORD, Has spoken and called the earth From the rising of the sun to its going down. Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God will shine forth. Our God shall come, and shall not keep silent; A fire shall devour before Him, And it shall be very tempestuous all around Him. He shall call to the heavens from above, And to the earth, that He may judge His people:"Gather My saints together to Me, Those who have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice." Let the heavens declare His righteousness, For God Himself is Judge. Selah
Look at this simple sentence, yet so wrapped in power and might. “Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God will shine forth.” The 'perfection of beauty', what a statement of who and what the LORD, God, the Almighty is (and is not). As the perfection of beauty, He is! And as that, He is the imperfection of all that is gross and ugly.
He cannot be less than perfect in any way, He cannot be ugly, He cannot be unjust, the very heavens declare His righteousness.
Reading
Morning Psalm 8, Noon Psalm 117-124, Evening Psalm 136
Alternate Reading Plan based on 7 chapters/day from 7 sections of the Scriptures. My groupings are: Genesis-Joshua, Judges to Esther, Job to Song of Solomon, Psalms breaking 119 into convenient sets, Isaiah to Malachi, Matthew to Acts, Romans to Revelation.
Set your own up in convenient groupings as fits your study habits.
I suggest either setting aside a period of the day to read all, or break the readings up into morning, mid-day, and evening series. Both approaches have their advantages, and both will build an awareness of the Bible as a whole over time.
